Playstation 4 Nintendo Switch Xbox One PC Gaming can sometimes be a high data-consuming task, because it involves several different download/upload activities. For this reason, we want to provide useful information and tips to help you understand your usage when playing online video games. Nowadays, video games are available on many platforms, including consoles, PCs, smartphones, and tablets. Each platform offers a variety of games, which not only involve an initial download and continuous updates, but also tend to have online features that consume some additional data. 1. One of the most important things to know about gaming and internet usage is that if you are downloading a new game from an online store, the data usage is much higher than what is used if only playing the game itself. While online gaming data usage is far from excessive, downloading new games is one of the most data intensive tasks you can do online. Many new "blockbuster" titles are now pushing past 50GB for a 2. download, at least when it comes to PC, Xbox One, and PlayStation 4. Smartphone and tablet games are not as heavy of data hogs, as they tend to be 1GB or less. If you’re a console player, a good option to avoid large downloads is purchasing games as a physical disc. This way, you can install the game initially without using any data, and you only need to download updates if they are released in the future. Another way of managing your data usage on gaming platforms is changing the settings to make sure your device is not continuously downloading large updates you may not want or need.

  • 1. Introduction
    Latest Gaming Console 1 1. INTRODUCTION Gaming consoles are one of the best digital entertainment media now available. Gaming consoles were designed for the sole purpose of playing electronic games. A gaming console is a highly specialised piece of hardware that has rapidly evolved since its inception incorporating all the latest advancements in processor technology, memory, graphics, and sound among others to give the gamer the ultimate gaming experience. A console is a command line interface where the personal computer game's settings and variables can be edited while the game is running. But a Gaming Console is an interactive entertainment computer or electronic device that produces a video display signal which can be used with a display device to display a video game. The term "video game console" is used to distinguish a machine designed for consumers to buy and use solely for playing video games from a personal computer, which has many other functions, or arcade machines, which are designed for businesses that buy and then charge others to play. 1.1. Why are games so popular? The answer to this question is to be found in real life. Essentially, most people spend much of their time playing games of some kind or another like making it through traffic lights before they turn red, attempting to catch the train or bus before it leaves, completing the crossword, or answering the questions correctly on Who Wants To Be A Millionaire before the contestants. Office politics forms a continuous, real-life strategy game which many people play, whether they want to or not, with player- definable goals such as ³increase salary to next level´, ³become the boss´, ³score points off a rival colleague and beat them to that promotion´ or ³get a better job elsewhere´.

Buonocore A Thesis in the field of Sustainability for the Degree of Master of Liberal Arts in Extension Studies Harvard University November 2016 Copyright 2016 Cathryn E. Buonocor Abstract This study examines and compares the environmental footprint of video game distribution on last generation consoles, current generation consoles and personal computers (PC). Two different methods of delivery are compared on each platform: traditional retail on optical discs and digital downloads in the U.S. Downloading content has been growing and is used to distribute movies, music, books and video games. This technology may change the environmental footprint of entertainment media. Previous studies on books, music, movies and television shows found that digital methods of distribution reduced emissions. However, prior research on video games, looking only at previous generation consoles, found the opposite conclusion.
